Item Description
This rarity is unlisted in Hake and features a highly detailed real photo profile of TR wearing his iconic pince-nez glasses. The underside has lost a circle of black paint from the metal collet but the silvering on the mirror remains Exc. On the celluloid side the perimeter has a narrow band of tan stain on the outer edge but it blends well with the dark sepia background color. Only example we've seen. Philip G. Straus Collection. Rare.
